Chapter 324: Retro Scorer
"DeMar~~~ DeRozan !!"
The live DJ chanted with a hint of surprise.
DeRozan is not only the first goal of the new season, but also a very wonderful turn and drift, from the point of view of action, full of confidence.
The fans at the scene gave applause, looked at each other and laughed, and felt that they had seen something different from last season.
Rick Adelman's eyelids jumped, and he frowned as he looked at Wang Mingming, who seemed to be smiling.
"The King ....... Tomorrow"
Wang Mingming likes to come up with new ideas, DeRozan's attack this time is very different from the twin tower tactics rumored by the media before, and the attack in the elbow area can even be said to be a bit retro.
Transition between offense and defense on the field.
Paul Millsap and Brooks passed the ball to cover with hand-to-hand passes, then lobbed the ball high to Yao Ming in the low post.
Before Chandler had time to go around, Yao Ming received the ball in the low post, and taking the ball was a back.
Leaning heavily on Chandler's chest, Yao Ming then hooked the edge of the paint area, and the basketball slashed over Chandler and into the basket.
The 30-year-old Yao Ming has maintained a very good competitive state, especially the ability to hook his left and right hands is getting stronger and stronger.
Chandler couldn't cover Yao Ming, he was pressed and beaten by Yao Ming, and it was useless to bounce.
The Kings attacked, serving the baseline quickly.
The Kings' positional offense was retro, but the offense was fast-paced, with Kidd holding the ball, quickly dribbling forward, and then distributing it near the center circle and passing the ball to wing DeRozan.
It's DeRozan again!
Everyone is thinking that this No. 9 has a lot of roles, and he can take the initiative to receive Kidd's pass in the attack.
DeRozan received the ball, probed a tentative step, Wilson Chandler who defended him took a step to the right, and then DeRozan broke through with his right foot to the left, the offensive rhythm and dribbling rhythm were very good, and instantly formed a breakthrough position advantage for Chandler.
Chandler reached out and bent his arm to block DeRozan.
DeRozan dribbled with his left hand, dribbled twice, and the two came to near the elbow zone in the confrontation.
It's the elbow zone again!
The fans stared at the wrestling two, as if they were seeing the most fist-to-flesh fighter war in ancient times.
DeRozan suddenly slowed down, stepped on the floor with his right foot, and pulled the ball with his left hand suddenly, and his body was like a spinning top, jamming Chandler's position.
"Oops!"
At this time, Chandler was unable to adjust his body due to inertia.
DeRozan turned around his right side from his left side, took the basketball with both hands, and then took the left foot as the axis with his right foot, changed the center of gravity and stepped up, and the air was an elegant glide.
Yao Ming, who was guarding the frame, didn't expect DeRozan to be able to complete such a beautiful turn while traveling, and there was a problem with the blocked line, DeRozan directly poked out with his long arms and almost touched the basket.
At this time, even if there is a top wing blocker behind him, it will be difficult to block DeRozan's layup.
"Huh!"
DeRozan hit a layup and scored 2 more points!
The audience was taken aback, the first offensive drift shot, the second offense, the offensive and defensive transition to complete the turn and layup, is it so chic?
The host of the Sacramento broadcast exclaimed: "DeMar DeRozan has improved a lot, and it looks like he has improved his offensive ability in the offseason, and it seems that last season's playoff and Finals baptism has helped him grow." ”
"That's right, rookies of the same age have never had such an experience, in fact, a finals experience is very important for a player."
Rocket offensive.
Brooks hit the Kings' interior with the help of a pick-and-roll, and passed to Millsap on the side in the movement, and Millsap took a step to shake off Al Jefferson and made a mid-range jumper.
Hit!
Switching offensively and defensively, this time, DeRozan ran off the ball on the flank, and after Kidd and Chandler passed the ball to the ground, it was turned to Nicholas Batum.
Batum faked a real shot, held the ball in his right hand, pushed Gallinari, and then suddenly stepped back from the middle distance, and made a half-volley jumper!
"Will it come in?"
Did the audience think it would be another surprise? Looking at Batum's shooting state, it seems to be very accurate.
"Bell~"
Smashed on the back edge and missed.
But the basketball bounced relatively high, and Chandler, who was standing behind, raised his hand with one hand, jumped fully, and also touched the basketball and flicked the ball back.
Kidd, who was about to retreat, was quick to step forward and receive the basketball.
Kidd had an amazing view of the big picture, kept the ball in his hand, and gave a long throw to Al Jefferson, who was in the empty space near the baseline, and Al Jefferson caught the ball and made a shot.
Hit!
It's CIC again!
Last season, the Kings only had Chris Bosh shoot from mid-range, but as soon as this season came up, the Kings had three shots from the mid-range, which didn't seem to fit well with Wang's philosophy of emphasizing three-point shooting.
But the shooting percentage was okay, and after Jefferson made a shot, the Kings led by two points at 6-4.
The Rockets were still looking for an offense closer to the interior, Yao Ming was rounded by Chandler, then turned and walked inside, and Millsap's pass threatened the Kings' defense, and the Kings immediately shrank the defense.
Yao Ming received the ball, and Chandler and Jefferson both reached out their arms together to interfere, and this time the shot missed.
Jefferson turned and grabbed the rebound.
He didn't have long to be happy, Millsap, who rushed in, pulled out the ball and cut the ball off Jefferson's hand, Jefferson didn't have time to react, Millsap threw it with one hand and scored the ball.
"Huh!"
Hit.
Wang Ming shook his head secretly.
Jefferson's talent is good, but he didn't develop some habits in the Timberwolves, and mistakes like this belong to mental relaxation.
If it's Bosh, the first thing he does after getting a rebound is definitely to add up his elbows to protect the basketball.
6-6 draw.
Kidd slowly controlled the tempo, Chandler made a wing screen for Batum, and there was another cross-screen between Batum and DeRozan, DeRozan came out, and Batum cut to the basket in the air.
It's different here and last season, last season, it must be the shooter who came out to catch the ball, and DeRozan cut to the basket, but now, Wang will arrange for DeRozan to come out to catch the ball tomorrow.
Kidd didn't pass to DeRozan, the Rockets' defense was leaky, and Kidd hit the ground directly and passed to Batum
Batum received the ball and hit the basket to Jefferson under the basket, and Jefferson received the ball and dunked with both hands.
"Bang!"
The 25-year-old Jefferson is full of energy and has a sense of power when he dunks.
Rick Adelman was unhappy with the Rockets' defense this time, standing up and yelling on the sidelines to put pressure on the players.
Sometimes players will have some leaks on the field, some running mistakes, and once they make a mistake, they will give the opponent a chance to complete an easy attack.
Yao Ming is still dominating in the low post, and this league-recognized super center for the past five years is still unstoppable.
Tyson Chandler played against Yao Ming at the World Championships, returned to the NBA, and continued to PK with Yao Ming, every time he defended Yao Ming, he felt a challenge.
Compared with the Kings who announced in the preseason that they would play the Twin Towers, the Rockets are the real Twin Towers, and various tactics revolve around the Twin Towers, and there is a lot of interaction between Yao Ming and Millsap.
"Bang!" With Yao Ming's second dunk, Wang Ming called a timeout and replaced Chandler with Gortat, the center who shined in this year's finals.
In addition, Afflaro came on as the first substitute under Wang Mingming, replacing the role of Nocioni or Yudri last year.
Afflaro was replaced by Kidd, and the Kings had a point-less lineup on the court.
If other coaches put on such a lineup, they might have been called deviant long ago, but Wang Mingming is a famous coach in the league after all, and what operation is played, a "must have deep meaning" will definitely not be able to run.
Afflaro pushed forward with the ball, DeRozan ran past the elbow zone, and then Gortat aggressively drove to the line and played a high block with Afflalo.
"If it was ten years ago, where would there be so many pick-and-rolls and covers." Reggie Miller sighed.
"In order to encourage offense, the league is very strict about the blowing of defensive players' hand movements, and the three-point shooting tactics are now popular in the NBA, and the quality of cover is becoming higher and higher, and many tactics start with blocking."
What Reggie Miller means is that he should be able to average 30 points per game with this kind of pick-and-roll intensity.
Afflaro is in a contract year, so he deliberately approached Wang Ming in the offseason, hoping to increase his chances of playing in the new season, and he himself has been crazy about training in the summer to hone his body and skills.
But he didn't expect that Wang Ming would really obey his request and arrange for him to be the first substitute in the first opening game.
Afflalo thought a lot in his mind at the moment, and he understood that this was the opportunity given by the manager, but also a test, and if not, what awaited him would be a relapse in the team's status and playing time.
Afflaro took a deep breath, tensed a nerve, strode forward, and suddenly activated!
Gortat's cover was just right, and the defender was completely blocked.
Yao Ming faced Afflaro one-on-one.
Avralo shook continuously in front of his body, so that Yao Ming couldn't understand the direction of his breakthrough, and then suddenly stopped, jumped high, and shot a mid-range jumper!
"It's the middle distance again!"
"Afflaro's rate of action is okay." Wang turned his head to look at his assistant coach Michael Curry, who smiled and said nothing.
In fact, I also wondered in my heart, did this guy Afflaro improve so quickly, and he only knew how to make threes and defend last season.
"Another retro scorer!"
Rick Adelman only feels that the Kings are becoming more and more incomprehensible, not only the main team shooting mid-range over there, but even the bench has begun to shoot mid-range.
At the end of the first quarter, the Kings led the Rockets by one point 24-23, which is definitely a small score when the offensive efficiency of the two sides is relatively high.
The Kings didn't make a single three-pointer in the entire first quarter.
DeRozan scored a game-high 7 points, and his style of play was steady and he had the style of a general.
In the second quarter of the game, Wang Tomorrow replaced J. Hickson and Al Harrington, and then, the style of the entire Kings team changed, from the original third gear, and suddenly accelerated to fifth gear.
The Kings' offense suddenly became faster, and the fans cheered, this is the King they are familiar with.
This is also the run-and-gun tactic that Wang Mingming uses most often, and Al Harrington is like a fish in water in this long-lost system, and shortly after his debut, he hit a 3-pointer in the transition attack.
The Kings came up in the second quarter and beat the Rockets 11-2, forcing Adelman to call a timeout.
The sudden switch in style made him feel very uncomfortable.
Adelman told his players to play steady.
As the sixth man, Scola began to play, scoring consecutive feints in the low post, and the Argentine tango footsteps beat 95 percent of the league's interior players.
The Rockets gradually caught up with the score, and at this time, Wang Tomorrow replaced the rookie player in a dead ball effort.
Eric Bledsoe.
Bledsoe belongs to the lottery and is also a famous player at the University of Kentucky, but under Wang Mingming, he has just entered the NBA, and he must start from the bench.
Only a little higher than Lance Stephenson, Hassan Whiteside and Beverley, behind Jason Thompson.
Jason Thompson is also quite depressed, he also dunked a few times in the finals last season, which left a deep impression in the eyes of the public, but in the offseason, the team's power forward position was overcrowded, and his status dropped several notches at once, and he was about to fall out of the rotation.
Now that Bledsoe is on the court ahead of him, Jason Thompson is worried and preoccupied.
There was a round of applause at the scene, Bledsoe as a lottery show, there is still a certain market, Sacramento also gave birth to a small wave of fans belonging to him, which made him feel very novel, there is such a group of people in the stands, shouting for him, crazy for him.
"It's great, it gives me a lot of power."
Bledsoe later recalled his first appearance, thanking his teammates for their encouragement and his coach's trust.
Bledsoe came on the pitch, and the new signing on the opposite side, Courtney Lee, unceremoniously said, "Ready to cry?" Rookie. ”
Bledsoe's face turned cold and he snorted, his mind was actually blank, and he didn't know what to say in response.
By this point, Al Harington had already sent the ball to him.
Bledsoe moves forward with the ball, and he's a backup point guard for the Kings.
Courtney Lee, hailed as one of the league's best defensive guards, has his eye on Bledsoe and continues to put pressure on rookies.
Bledsoe only felt the pressure on his face, and the other party was like a mountain, a poisonous snake, never leaving him, as if he could cut off his dribble at any time.
Bledsoe turned around and passed the ball out as he had done in practice.
As soon as he made a move, Courtney Lee, who was quick-eyed, raised his hand and lightly touched the basketball.
The trajectory of the basketball pass changed instantly, and it was supposed to be passed to Afflaro to answer, but Battinger next to Afflaro sprang out, reached out to cut off the ball, and launched a fast attack, sending the ball forward, and striding two steps to follow.
At this point, no one had time to retreat, and Badinger carried himself to the frontcourt, looked behind him to make sure there was no one, grabbed the ball with both hands, and glided in the air.
Bledsoe looked ugly, and Courtney Lee repeated the trash-talk, "Welcome to the NBA." ”
